A War in Freight Rates.

CHICAGO, April 6.-The failure to agree
upon basis for the division of rates to and
from Mississippi river points on M issouri
river business and points beyond, has
caused a complete rupture between the line
east from Chicago and those west from
this city. All through billing of freight be
tween points in the east and Missouri river
points via Chicago has been stopped. The
eastern roads charge local rates to Chicago.
the local rates are added from Chicago and
western points. which. of course, make the,
rates via Chicago materially higher than
via st. Louis. Besides all freight from the
east has to be rebilled at Chicago, which is
an additional embarrassment. The roads
running west from Chicago are determined
it is said. to resist the demands of the east
ern lines with all the means at their com
mand

the pennsylvania Boycott.

The action of this road in turning to tn
wall the tickets of all Northwestern roads
that paw commissions continues to excite
comment, and there seems to be more oppo-
sition to it than was expected. The North
western does not discuss the right of roads
to turn tickets to the wall, and proposes to
let the courts determine the question when
it is brought forward, and stands ready to
exchange business ON such basis as may be
agreed upon. The Rock Island officials
state emphatically that they viii give no
further assurances to the Pennsylvania. 1t
is a matter of indifference to the officials of
that road whether a through ticket is sold
over their road from the East or not. In
all matters of controversy, local men say.
the Eastern lines have been arrogant,
dctatorial and overbearing. This
matter is for the commission
and the courts to determine. They will
pay no further attention to it. The Mis-
souri, Pacific and the Alton road will not
comply. The Illinois Central is in sympa-
thy with the Pennsylvania. 1t is claimed
that the action of the Pennsylvania is in
violation of section of the interstate COM
merce law. which says:
Every common carrier subject to the law
shall, according to their respective powers.
afford all reasonable. proper and equal facili-
ties for the interchange of traffic between
their respective lines and for the receiving,
forwarding and delivering of passengers and
property to and from their several lines and
those connected Herewith.
1t is therefore claimed that when the
Pennsylvania singles out the Milwaukee 81
ST. Paul, the Northwestern and other lines
and says it will afford them AL reason
able, proper and equal facilities" and de-
tlNN II @aI-T .,In
it takes an untenable position. 1t is re-
ported that the Union Pacific, Northern
Pacific and Southern Pacific acceded to the
demands of the PENNSYLVANIA.

Since January 1, 1887, our experience
has been as follows: We have lighted the
town with As lamps of 1900 candle power
each, and run them GA hours, minutes;
used liz gal. oil, at 35 cts. per GAL; used
IA lbs waste, at II cts. per Id; SO 300 lbs

our carbon man $25 per month or $40 to

which will require us to light about 200
hours per month-WhIch includes the
average amount of cloudy weather we may
expect during what should be moonlight
nights. We have had no repairs, but one

and from the information we gained when

TALKING OVER THE BATTLE.
The day after election the battle hardly
seemed to be ended yet. Knots of Drys
were gathered around Haines' corner, on
Main street, as jubilant over the close
fight they had made as if they had won
the victory, and announcing that the next
fight they would "down'' the saloons.
The Vets, as IS was as effective as thou.
sand in fixing the majority, seemed con-
tent to let the Drys do the talking. and
went about their business.
NOT QUITE OVER.

PROTEST ENTERED BY THE DRYs BEFORE
THE RETURNING BOARD.
Yesterday evening at 5 O'Clock Messrs.
w. IL. Ii. Lynn, E. Staples, w.
l.. Olivier and W. H. Fowle, the Return
ing Board met to make the returns
Among the spectators present we're sever
al prominent Drys and Vets.
Mr.. w. W. Gibbs presented to the
Board protest setting forth that it was
proposed to contest the legality of the
election of Tuesday on the ground that
the ballots used by the voters for License
were not printed on white paper as the
law requires. The signers protested
against the Board certifying the apparent
returns. The signers were W. W. Gibbs,
Geo. z. Baker, G. E. Haines, A. G..
Points and G. G. Berry.
Mr.. Lynn said the duties of the Board
were exclusively clerical and not judicial
and it could not legally entertain the pro-
test. The Hastings Court was the proper
tribunal for the contestants.
Mr.. Fowle pulled out a package of
tickets of both parties and said the Ii
cense tickets were nearer white than those
Against License.
The Board went on, transacted it's du-
ties, certified the returns, and adjourned.
The next step to contest The
election will have to be petition to the
Hastings Judge signed by at least Is citi-
zens. He then can hear the evidence and
decide On the legality of the election. AS
far as yet developed it is not very likely
that any action upsetting the election
will be taken by the courts, subordinate or
upper, as it would be very hard to say
which is the whittier Of the two opposing
tickets used, and as no faint of fraud can
be attached to the difference.
